What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 19 and 48?

Answer

LCM of 19 and 48 is
912

First common multiples: 912; 1,824; 2,736; …

912 is divisible by both: 912 ÷ 19 = 48, 912 ÷ 48 = 19 — and 48 and 19 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/19 by 48 and of y/48 by 19.

19 and 48 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 19 × 48 = 912.
